depends on what the charge is...... what were you charged with?
I am 16 years old and i want to work with kids with cancer at St.jude but the problem is is that 7 months ago i got a charge and they charged me as an adult i was 15 at the time. i pled no contest and will be serving 32 months. i plan on getting my high school diploma or my GED while inside. but when i get out will i be able to work as a nurse.

I agree with Amanda. It depends on what state you are in and what the charge was. I applaud what you would like to do and you are very brave to be facing what you are and looking ahead as a responsible adult should do. If it is drug related some states might ask that you go through a drug treatment program before they will allow you to take the boards. What you do here on out and how you present yourself will be very important. I will keep you in my prayers and I hope that you are able to meet your goal.

thank you for your replys my charge was aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
Since your charge is so serious, and is a violent crime, you might have trouble getting your nursing license......
I agree with Amanda...it may be a bit hard. You'd have to check with the Florida State Board; the contact information is listed in the Florida State Forum.
